Coster del riu Bitlles
Recaredo Terrers is made with grapes from selected own-vineyards located in the Bitlles River Valley Highlands (Coster del riu Bitlles), in the county of the Alt Penedès, Barcelona.
The vines grow in highly calcareous, loamy soils (balance of sand, silt and clay), that provides good levels of drainage in the upper areas and a higher water retention capacity in lower areas, where the soil depth is also greater.
